Nvidia is coming out with a brand new Nvidia RTX 3060 GPU and has finally announced the release date and it's coming in fast! The company reportedly plans to sell the product on Thursday this Feb. 25 which is only a couple of days a way.
RTX 3060 price
According to an article by PCMag, in an email, Nvidia has noted that the sales will actually start at 9AM PST instead of the previously regular standard 9AM EST. At this particular time, the company actually isn't releasing another special Founders Edition for this specific GPU so gamers will have to reportedly settle for the GPU design by other third-party vendors like EVGA.
The upcoming Nvidia RTX 3060 price is reportedly going to start at $329 and will also represent the most affordable GPU of the whole Nvidia RTX 30-series. The Nvidia RTX 30609 possessed only a few CUDA cores in comparison to its bigger sibling, the Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti.

It would also run using a different 192-bit memory interface as opposed to the higher 256-bit. However, there is an advantage that this particular GPU holds especially for its price point and what it can offer. In order to compensate, the Nvidia RTX 3060 actually comes along with 12GB of video memory which is over the previous 8GB of memory that is found in the Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti. Make sure to stay tuned for the full review.
Unfortunately, it is a known fact that Nvidia's reported latest GPU has still been extremely hard to purchase due to both the low supplies as well as the massive demand in the GPU, according to an article by Engadget. As a result of this, most of the major retailers would still continue to sell out of the given product almost immediately after it launches. This would mean that interested buyers shouldn't be surprised if they would then reportedly struggle to obtain the GPU during the launch day.

Other bad news regarding the GPU is how the prices for all of the other GPU cards have all risen in price. Starting some time last month, a particular tariff on certain Chinese imports then started to take effect once again. This forced the vendors to eventually raise the total prices for a number of GPU models. This reportedly included the other products within the RTX 3000 series.
The Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti, on the other hand, should actually be priced closer towards the $399 mark but can not go as high as $639! Despite all of the tariffs, a particular Nvidia spokesperson noted to PCMag that the Nvidia RTX 3060 will remain its starting price at $329 as the particular MSRP or manufacturer's suggested retail price.
